The Premier just announced that golf course can open for business on Saturday, May 16th. We are pleased to announce that the tee-sheet is officially open for the 2020 Season!

With that being said, there are many new guidelines and protocols that will be MANDATORY to follow at all times for everyone’s health and safety. Please read the below protocols that are effective immediately at the MGC. Anyone who does not follow may be asked to leave the course:

GOLFERS

• Please stay home if you have any COVID-19 symptoms.

CLUBHOUSE/PRO SHOP/LOCKER ROOMS

• Clubhouse will remain closed including the Lounge and Locker Rooms.
• The front washrooms will be available for use. Maximum of 1 person in there at a time. We recommend using sanitizer before and after using the facilities. You will enter through the Pro Shop door.
• Pro Shop will allow for a maximum of 2 guests or members in there at all times.

TEE-TIMES/CARTS/CHECK-IN PROCESS

• All tee-times must be booked in advance. No walk-ups or drop-ins. Members will continue to have up to 7-days advance booking, non-members up to 5-days.
• Tee-times will start with increments of 15 minutes to further increase the social distancing protocols.
• Preferred method of payment will be payments online or by calling ahead with pre-paid green fees. Pro Shop will accept quick-tap payment.
• Golfers are to show up no earlier than 20 minutes before their tee-time. Please wait in your car if you are early.
• Please designate one person in your group to check-in with the Pro Shop as there is a maximum of 2 guests or members in the Pro Shop.
• Power cart rentals will be single rider only (*unless living at the same address) and must be booked in advance.
• Club rentals and push-carts have been eliminated.

ON COURSE/PLAYING

• Social distancing will be enforced for all golfers. There will be no close interaction among golfers (ie – no hand shaking, touching golf balls, clubs, pin, etc.).
• Ball washers, bunker rakes, benches have been removed.
• Play bunkers as you see fit. Consider ground under pair, lift and place, etc.
• Please do not touch or remove the flagstick at any time. 
• On course washrooms are closed. The only washrooms available are the front washrooms at the Clubhouse.
• Hand sanitizer stations have been added between holes 3 and 4, at the washroom on 7 and 12 and at the shack on 10.

AFTER THE ROUND

• Please park carts in designated spot after completion of your round.  Please leave the key in the cart.
• We ask that you leave the course immediately upon completion of your round to limit gathering of players in the parking lots, Pro Shop, practice green, etc.

OTHER

• We are increasing the frequency of cleaning and disinfecting all locations golfers may come in contact with.
• Food & beverage will be provided on a takeout basis as per government regulations.
  • Current take-out hours remain effective:
    • Wednesday-Friday 11am – 7pm
    • Saturday-Sunday 4pm – 7pm
    • Monday-Tuesday CLOSED
• The club is taking prudent steps to impose and enforce appropriate protocols to keep everyone safe, but there can be no assurance that the virus will not be contracted by players. This is a risk that each person must assess themselves, and if they choose to play, to take the risk of either contracting the virus or transmitting it to others.
• Men’s and Ladies Night are postponed for the time being

*These rules are all subject to change*

As mentioned above, these are for the health and safety of everyone. Please respect and follow these guidelines at all times! Everyone has been waiting patiently to be able to golf, and by following these guidelines, it will ensure we can continue to do what we enjoy for the rest of the 2020 golf season!

We look forward to seeing everyone out here starting Saturday!
